Funding is intended to support and promote promising research in the humanities among graduate students at UMBC. The fellowships are open to all UMBC doctoral and master's level students working on a humanities-related research project that will culminate in a dissertation or thesis. Fellows will reside two days a week in a shared office in the Dresher Center during the fall semester 2014 and receive up to $1,000 to be used for research travel, materials, or other directly-related research expenses.  During the fall semester, fellows will be expected to give a presentation as part of the “CURRENTS: Humanities Work Now” lunchtime series and attend other Humanities Forum and Dresher Center events and workshops.  After the fall semester, fellows will submit a statement summarizing the work accomplished during the semester and their progress towards completion of the dissertation or thesis.
